There were beast-taming cultivators, but they were extremely rare. They were even rarer than Talisman Cultivators.
Places like the islands near the sea were at war with the sea race all year round. There was a tradition of capturing members of the Sea Race, imprisoning the true form of the Sea Lord, setting up restrictions, and destroying their consciousness.
It was a way to exploit the barren sea race as much as possible.
But that wasn't beast-taming at all. It was no different from imprisoning slaves.
The real orthodox beast-taming was a telepathic connection between the human and the beast. They were partners and comrades-in-arms.
This technique had a long history and could be traced back to the primordial times.
In the primordial times, there were too few cultivators with natural Dao meridians, and their combat ability was very poor. Thus, there were sages who created the Beast Taming Art, using the Beast Taming Art to tame mutated beasts for the tribe's use, increasing their combat strength.
In a short period of time, the increase in combat ability of the beasts was very significant. Of course, it was all the rage. It was also one of the countless attempts made by the sages of the human race during the difficult years.
But the problem was that common beasts barely had the ability to interfere with Transcendent battles, and beasts with Transcendent power were rare.
Moreover, those beasts were generally very strong, and many of them were even intelligent. They were very difficult to tame.
For example, the legendary magical beast Taowu could also be counted as a beast.
In the primordial times, beasts that were called "beasts" often had some kind of divinity and were even qualified to be called divine beasts.
Beast-Taming techniques were usually used to connect with the bloodline descendants of those powerful beasts.
With the passage of time, they went from "uncommon" to "rare", and finally almost extinct.
Beast-Taming techniques came to an end.
Later, based on the research of Meridian Unlocking Pills, the sages of the human race creatively bred "beasts" to supplement the supply of Meridian Unlocking Pills.
Beasts truly had Transcendent combat ability and were as strong as some beasts. As the cultivation ability improved, the beasts could still be improved.
Many people felt that beast-taming techniques might be revived.
But the most realistic problem was …
The stronger the beast, the higher the quality of Meridian Unlocking Pills.
The fundamental purpose of beast-taming techniques was to increase Transcendent power. But beasts and human cultivators couldn't be compared at all.
Survival of the fittest. That was all.
In the long history of cultivation, there were countless cultivation methods that had been eliminated. The art of beast taming was just one of them.
When the later generations mentioned it, they couldn't help but sigh a few times, but that was it.
As for the mutated beasts themselves, there were only a few rare mutated beast bloodlines that were still difficult to pass down in the modern world. For example, the giant tortoise in the Blessed Nation was one of them.
But it was also very rare.
Tan Ze's puppetry technique was already extraordinary. Regardless of whether it was Chi Tiannu, Ladytiger, or Chain Snake, they were not something that ordinary Jet-Black Sect cultivators could create.
As for the Beast Taming Technique that he cultivated, it had also reached an extremely profound level.
This Single-clawed Ghost Face Rat Bat had been trained very well, and its innate ability was shockingly strong. As soon as it appeared, it defeated Lin Xian.
Judging from the fact that the God's Will Army's general didn't stop it, the exotic beast tamed by Tentacle should be counted as one of the five puppets, so it wasn't against the rules.
Outside the arena, Jolin was shocked beyond words.
He even forgot to send a voice transmission as he muttered, "Tao Yi … is so strong!"
This was indeed an unexpected battle.
It was unexpectedly exciting!
Many people thought that the battle was going to end without any suspense, but there were many twists and turns in the arena, one after another.
Lin Xian's unrestrained Theurgy, coupled with the extremely powerful Saber Technique that he displayed later on, could be said to be able to cut through mountains and cut through rivers.
If he hadn't met an opponent like Tan Ze, he would have had a chance to enter the competition.
When these two powers were combined, there was an extremely frightening space for imagination.
Jiang Wang was very sure that if Lin Xian could develop these two powers to the extreme, he would even be qualified to compete for first place in the Yellow River Competition!
Unfortunately, he obviously had too little experience. Rong Guo had hidden him very well, so he didn't have many opportunities to grow.
Of course, if he had become famous earlier, he might not have achieved what he had today.
A person's strength was determined by his opponent.
It was precisely because Lin Xian was so strong that the power that Tan Ze displayed was even more shocking.
Even Lin Xian, who was so strong, couldn't turn the situation around. It wasn't hard to imagine how strong Tan Ze was.
No wonder he dared to challenge the Qi Qi Tianjiao. He had the aura of wanting to win back the Xia's reputation.
Unfortunately …
Jiang Wang sighed softly. "He doesn't have a chance."
They were still in the selection stage. At such an early stage, Tan Ze had already met Lin Xian and was forced to use most of his skills.
All three of his puppets were destroyed. Even if they could be repaired quickly, everyone knew about them already.
The Single-Clawed Ghost Face Bat's superpower was also revealed to everyone.
Tan Ze had at most one more puppet or one more mutated beast. The space was too small. On the battlefield, this was called "losing strategic depth". He was destined to lose.
In an event like the Yellow River Competition, before he walked off the stage, his exciting battle was probably already known to all of his strong opponents.
But for Jiang Wang.
He wasn't happy about losing such a strong opponent.
Instead, he felt that it was a pity that he might not have a chance to fight someone with such a special ability.
Qiao Lin didn't think clearly for a moment. He was still worried about the Xia's Tianjiao. But after hearing Jiang Wang's words and seeing Tan Ze's ugly expression, he roughly understood.
At this moment, Tan Ze stood alone on the stage. There was no joy on his face.
The Single-Clawed Ghost Face Bat hovered beside him.
Lin Xian lay on the ground. No one knew if he was dead or alive. The three puppets that had been destroyed by the hatchet were scattered around Lin Xian.
No one spoke for a long time.
Many people finally realized that the Yellow River Competition didn't forbid life and death …
Even someone as weak as Rong Guo had come alone to keep a low profile.
This meant that Lin Xian, who was unconscious and unable to surrender, was now in Tan Ze's control.
Would Tan Ze kill this opponent who had destroyed his puppets and destroyed his hope?
"Lord Jiang." Qiao Lin swallowed and asked telepathically, "Will he kill Lin Xian?"
After such an exciting battle, Jiang Wang was very calm. He asked, "What do you want him to do?"
Qiao Lin thought for a moment and said, "Kill."
The reason was simple. Lin Xian was Rong Guo's Tianjiao.
Rong Guo was Qi's side.
A small country like Rong Guo had hidden this genius so well. Their vigilance and resistance towards Qi couldn't be more obvious.
If Lin Xian died, Rong Guo's last hope would be gone. Of course, Qi was happy to see this.
Jiang Wang said, "So Tan Ze won't kill him."
On the stage, Tan Ze looked at Lin Xian who had collapsed on the ground. His eyes were filled with unconcealable killing intent.
The Sword Peak Mountain, a famous mountain with great significance, had been "returned by imperial decree."
The Xia was now the laughing stock of the world.
As one of the representatives of the Xia, he came to the Yellow River Competition to win back some honor for the Xia.
But he was stopped by a cultivator from Rong Guo, who had exposed so many of his trump cards during the competition.
How could he not hate him?
But after a moment of silence, he finally said to the general of the God's Will Army, "The result has been decided, right?"
The general of the God's Will Army raised his hand expressionlessly and said, "The winner of the Geng Stage, the Xia takes pity on him!"
